ABSTRACT A new huanglongbing (HLB) “Candidatus Liberibacter” species is genetically characterized, and the bacterium is designated “Candidatus Liberibacter psyllaurous.” This bacterium infects the psyllid Bactericera cockerelli and its solanaceous host plants potato and tomato, potentially resulting in “psyllid yellowing.” Host plant-dependent HLB transmission and variation in psyllid infection frequencies are found.

The response to the incursion of tomato potato psyllid (TPP) Bactericera cockerelli first recorded in New Zealand in 2006 and 2008 respectively has been well documented However development of a bioprotection research programme to underpin effective crop production in the presence of TPP/CLso has not This paper examines the strategic and operational responses of the main Crown Research Institute involved in parallel with industry actions in terms of the coordination prioritisation and implementation of a proportionally increasing research programme after it became clear that eradication of these organisms was not feasible The establishment of TPP/CLso in New Zealand underlines the fragility of current integrated pest management (IPM) systems and the challenges faced by small industries to the establishment of poorly understood organisms with complex pest/disease/host plant interactions whose impacts were not immediately obvious Insights are provided into how a research response to similar establishments might be developed in the future

AbstractHerbivores often move among spatially interspersed host plants, tracking high-quality resources through space and time. This dispersal is of particular interest for vectors of plant pathogens. Existing molecular tools to track such movement have yielded important insights, but often provide insufficient genetic resolution to infer spread at finer spatiotemporal scales. Here, we explore the use of Nextera-tagmented reductively-amplified DNA (NextRAD) sequencing to infer movement of a highly-mobile winged insect, the potato psyllid (Bactericera cockerelli), among host plants. The psyllid vectors the pathogen that causes zebra chip disease in potato (Solanum tuberosum), but understanding and managing the spread of this pathogen is limited by uncertainty about the insect’s host plant(s) outside of the growing season. We identified 8,443 polymorphic loci among psyllids separated spatiotemporally on potato or in patches of bittersweet nightshade (S. dulcumara), a weedy plant proposed to be the source of potato-colonizing psyllids. A subset of the psyllids on potato exhibited close genetic similarity to insects on nightshade, consistent with regular movement between these two host plants. However, a second subset of potato-collected psyllids was genetically distinct from those collected on bittersweet nightshade; this suggests that a currently unrecognized host-plant species could be contributing to psyllid populations in potato. Oftentimes, dispersal of vectors of plant or animal pathogens must be tracked at a relatively fine scale in order to understand, predict, and manage disease spread. We demonstrate that emerging sequencing technologies that detect SNPs across a vector’s entire genome can be used to infer such localized movement.
